Habitat Enrichment

Apr 24, 2025 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Music

With Krista

Habitat Enrichment is the concept of introducing novelty to an animal's enclosure to keep it from getting bored or sad. Let me play you something fun. Genres span world and time, just like a cat with a box to play in.

Some specialties you can usually hear a little on my show: Luk Thuong, 60s crooners, cow punk, and synthwave. If you don't like the song currently playing, wait approximately 2 minutes for something else!

warm afternoon

I've just seen the movie Sinners and it fits so well into my playlist of the day. No spoilers, I promise.

michael gudgeon 10:18:16 AM

michael gudgeon 10:18:38 AM

Krista (host) 10:18:52 AM

Ev 10:18:53 AM

michael gudgeon 10:21:15 AM
Krista, i also just texted my friend who i used to live with big horror fan, figured he would have seen this after i googled it and saw horror movie, and let him know you have a special playlist to it!
Krista (host) 10:22:09 AM
the luminous Wunmi Mosaku from Lovecraft Country is in the movie and her acting is stellar
Krista (host) 10:22:40 AM
don't google the movie if you don't know about it because you will get spoilers and going in blind is so worth it
michael gudgeon 10:23:13 AM

michael gudgeon 10:23:26 AM

michael gudgeon 10:24:20 AM

Krista (host) 10:24:37 AM
I'm not a horror movie fan generally, especially not really yucky ones like Saw, etc, but this one has such great music and acting
michael gudgeon 10:35:22 AM
it wasn't easy not being a horror fan, living and sleeping 1 room away from a walking nightmare!
Krista (host) 10:38:06 AM
my husband and roommates are horror movie fans, I know that pain. they now only watch after everyone else is asleep because I have 3 small children, thankfully
Bike R 10:55:34 AM
Coogler was on NPR. Interesting
michael gudgeon 10:57:42 AM
he has a like 3 foot doll, of ( been trying to google what character it is and i cant remember, its honestly making me upset i cant ) a movie character , with like a scarecrow pumpkin head( not pumpkinhead i don't think) and it's holding a sickle. It got stored in my closet for most of the year, but would have it out in my room, and stream with it behind me sometimes. Until i woke up with sleep paralysis and it was standing over me with the sickle and i couldn't move. Never was in room again
michael gudgeon 10:58:24 AM
and yo that's awesome, yeah sad boys night was every tuesday, and that was 6 hours of movies/shows/ w/e i would join on some stuff
michael gudgeon 10:59:24 AM
